France Finally Gets It!--Almost.

From the BBC:

More than 70 Muslim workers at France's main airport have been stripped of the security clearance for allegedly posing a risk to passengers, officials say.

The staff at Charles de Gaulle airport, including baggage handlers, are said to have visited terrorist training camps in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

So far, so good.
But France is nothing if not civilized, and the rights of its citizens must be upheld at all costs:

However, about a dozen other workers who have been identified as security risks still have access to sensitive areas of the airport because under French law they must be allowed an opportunity to respond to the charges before they are suspended.

And the security situation in the US is not much better.
